How is your season this year going?

[florida strain]

My season started slow but is now picking up. Numbers aren't to bad but my largest fish so far is just a 3 lber. Caught it by a laydown in about 4 ft, stained water, on a Zoom junebug lizard.

im having a ok year my best day so far has been 20 fish in the boat with 2 of them 6 + fish  every trip  except 2 i have atleast gotten a limit and no skunks yet so yea not bad

[aarogb]

Mine is going great so far.  I can already tell you that I am more consistent already this year than I was all of last year, which was my biggest goal.

I just started seeing the Bass this week,caught 2 small ones and wouldnt ya know it,the vehicle I use to haul my boat to the lake with took a crap,and cant be repaired,so im putting together a backup vehicle as we speak.Im hoping to be able to get back to the lake really soon so I can get back to catchin them bucketmouths

This year has been pretty good for me. I've managed six bass over 7lbs, biggest 7.8lbs. Caught about 30-40 over 5lbs. Total probably around 800-1000 bass. Maybe more.

My season started a couple weeks ago and so far so good. the bite seems a little slow but the size are of a little higher quality. Things should pick up big time in the next 2-3 weeks.

Before you open your trap, maybe you should ask me how I've caught over a thousand fish. Wouldn't that be a nicer way of going about it?

Man thats pretty good, how did you get so many fish and those big-uns?

[pitchNbass]

I have a 175 acre lake here in Florida and it's overpopulated with bass. I've been rehabbing an injury here in FL and I get a lot of afternoons on my boat to fish. I only fish this water so it gets zero pressure. From sunrise to sunset, you can catch 100 bass. When I mentioned numbers I went on the low end . I've been on the water probably 50-60 times. Slow days are 15-20 bass that being cold fronts in Feb. Lately it's been 30-40 fish in an afternoon with off days landing closer to 100. Been in FL since Feb 1st for spring training and it's boring here other than fishing when I'm done at the field. When I say pretty good, it's because my largest fish is 7.8 and I wish I've could beat my last years PB 9.1, but the numbers put a hamper on the quality. Hope this is making sense now... I guess someone saying I'm full of it makes me a lucky man.

man my year started off good and now it's going bad.  I've been skunked the last 2 trips including today.  Aw man my biggest was a 4lber.  Man this is very disappointing

This year so far, has been great. I have a lot more confidence this year on how to get them, and it's working. Not only that, but I have helped a buddy who doesn't really know what he's doing, to land some sweet smallies, and his PB largemouth. So far, my biggest is just over 5lbs (LM), but I'm just getting warmed up (literally).

[Fishing Rhino]

My season?  Not good at all. 

Started out great in early March.  Went to GA the last week of March and caught very few.  One lunker made it a worthwhile trip.

Haven't done any serious fishing since.  Wife had surgery, so I've had to stay close to home.  Did get the new boat wet last week and started the break in process for the engine. 

A buddy went with me, and we did make a few casts, just to try out the trolling motor and get used to the boat, but not a bump.  I don't count that as serious fishing.  It was just a break in the boring break in process.

Will finish breaking in the motor this week, and finally get a chance to do some serious fishing, maybe.

Wife is doing well, and able to function without a lot of help, so I may be able to get out a few times before I head to Pickwick for the road trip.

[fishfordollars]

Going well. The wife gave me free rein to fish as much as I wanted. Have won a few tournaments and finished up it the top five in another. No really large fish yet, but managing to put some good stringers together.

That being said I really sucked this weekend at the Big Bass splash on Rayburn. Only had one good money fish on and it came up and showed it's self to me right before it spit the bit. Had another that I felt good about but never got a look at it. Wraped me up around something and sawed it's self off.

that's fishing though.

I'm trying my best - but it's no walk in the park.

The snow the past two nights has been a little disheartening.

Well my first fish of the year was my biggest so far. It was about 6.5# I got it on a pearl fluke. It was still on my rod from last year and the ice just melted so I made a couple cast just for the heck of it not really expecting much. The weather here cant make up its mind. On Thursday it was sunny and 80 then Friday it drops to 50  :'( now its almost freezing at around 40 ohh and yesterday it was so cold the rain was freezing and coming down as hail.

SORRY them numbers are astonishing and a little unbelievable to me,i assumed you were fishing public water but i guess i can believe it on a private lake that no one else can fish,witch i also don't find right cause if its over populated with fish you should open it up for parents to bring their kids to teach them how to fish and practice catch and release

Sorry, that was my prediction for a little "after tax season" weather coming true.  It was a little rough sitting at my desk 7 days a week while it was in the 70's - 80's.  Yesterday's weather made it really easy to stay inside.  But I think it is safe to say we won't need to ice shanties for a few months.  ;D

[Fish Chris]

Well I guess both decent, and yet lousy too.

What I mean by this, is that for as few times as I've been able to get out, I've caught 1 DD Northern strain, and 4 Smallies over 5 lbs. So, that part is all good.

On the other hand, never in my whole life, have I been shot down due to poor, Winter like weather, between mid March, and mid April, as I have been this year ! I finally gave up on taking Thurs and Fri. off, figuring that if it ever turns warm / clear, and stay that way, I can still fish Mon - Weds every week, anyway.....

But not this week Once again, it's been beautiful, but its supposed to start changing Mon night, and Tues + Weds, I'll be shot down again

Un-freaking-believable

Guess I'll have to squeeze 3 days of fun into 1 day, tomorrow.

Urgggg.....

I have thrown baits from the shore on a friend's private lake. I have about 10 fish for the year. If I hadn't been able to do that, I am sure I'd be in a bad way by now.
